I do refer to him as Josh, don't I?

I'd like to see him on another show that calls for it.

Pic doesn't show up but do you mean the show that he did with the Hanks kid? If so, yeah, that was kinda fun.

I know. When I saw the interview that Sorkin wrote Josh specifically for him, I was like "Why?"

Whitford is awesome in Cabin in the Woods. He's one of many many reasons to see that movie.

I didn't recognize Whitford at all. Maybe if he walked around with a backpack like Josh it would have clicked.

I really like Intimate Moments for a Sensual Evening (or whatever it was called). I'll check this new one out, but I've heard this one wasn't so great. I can kind of imagine tbh - Aziz is funny, but his material is a little limited at times. A lot of his funny comes from his funny persona, mannerisms and absurd self-confidence, rather than the actual quality of the material.

This one lacks a portion of all of those things. I also liked his first special.

It's worth the $5 to keep the concept of comedians doing this style of releasing, but not a very good special at all.

I didn't like that he did half an hour on Jay-Z, R. Kelly and Harris again. I also think he thinks that his comic persona is narcissistic, when in reality he is just a narcissist who doesn't realize it.

Everything I've seen makes me think there's no way he's ever going to be funnier than the RAAAAAAAANDY stuff was and that wasn't going to get any more funny by there being more of it. I feel like every time on P&R the balance ****s from being more Aziz than Tom, the character stomps all over the line between amusing an insufferable.

This may be in part because at this point every time I see Tom I become irrationally enraged at the Ann stuff, because I still can't fathom why they thought that was a good idea.

No, if CK does it for $5, then others should do it for $3.
His first stand up special on CC was okish, it was funny at times, but I watched interviews with him beforehand and he revealed the funniest stuff, so it wasnt as funny watching it.

$5 for a piece of **** is still wasted money, so no money from me.

At first, I thought he was doing a great job of playing a narcissistic fool obsessed with fame, money, designer ****, all the latest "dope" fads and so on to make fun of those guys. Like when he says in his first stand-up video about wanting to stick it to guys who get bottle service in night clubs. I'm definitely becoming more and more convinced he can play that "character" because it's not that far from his actual personality.

Funny when consciously done to make fun of a certain type of person/attitude/mind-set/way of acting, not so funny when it's done seriously with some fair weak material.

This doesn't air for 2 more days in the US. It aired in some parts of Canada tonight and leaked to the internet shortly after. Most people haven't seen it yet.

OMG spoilers!

More importantly, why would NBC air eps of their shows in Canada before their big Thursday night lineup premieres?

Phew. When I heard it was available I was concerned NBC was dumping the last few episodes on random nights because it was cancelled.
